What Is VoLTE
VoLTE stands for Voice Over Long Term Evolution. VOLTE transmit calls over the internet Instead of using voice technology to route calls like CDMA or GSM call is routed as voice over internet protocol(VOIP) through services like Vonage and Skype. The main difference between VoLTE and the traditional method based on transmitting the calling procedure like traditionally deliver the call over the standard Internet Protocol, but through VoLTE calls are delivered over a mobile 4G LTE broadband network.

To take the advantage of this technology you must consider two things. First, you need a smartphone that supports the 4G LTE protocol. Second, you need to select those network carrier which supports VoLTE technology. Most of the service provider companies in the USA like AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon are committed to providing the VoLTE. VoLTE becomes the no.1 choice of the service provider carrier because VoLTE permit service provider to improve internal operations and voice data application is more efficiently as compare to old voice connection technology.

Lets we see some of the benefits of Voice Over Long Term Evolution(VoLTE) as compared to traditional technology.

HD Voice
The biggest benefit of using VoLTE provides high definition quality voice. This HD voice provides good quality of voice delivery which is richer and warmer through VoLTE as compare to 2G and 3G. The voice which transfers through a traditional network uses an 8kbps codec while the voice transmits through VoLTE is uses 13kbps.

Low Latency
Call connecting through VoLTE is much faster as compared to traditional technology like GSM or CDMA calls. Calls transmit through VoLTE is a low latency rate, therefore, call connection within 1 to 2 seconds is much faster as compared to an old technology which takes 3 to 4 or more seconds. we can say that connecting speed of VoLTE is double versus old circuit-switched technology.

Improve Battery Life
According to Sprint conducting test report, VoLTE services provide much-improved battery life compared with old technology.
Sprint conducted the text in Dallas for measuring and quantifying the impact on the battery life of call which conducted on CDMA, VoIP call using the Skype and 4G LTE networks. Following the result they found

Results showed a 35 percent lower current drain for VoLTE calls, as well as an 18 percent lower current drain for CDMA calls, compared with the first generation.

Calls made over the LTE network using Skype’s over-the-top VoIP application resulted in approximately one-third less current drain.

Battery life on the latest VoLTE-capable device now compares favorably to that of previous-generation devices when using CDMA voice.

Rich Communications Services
VoLTE provides another benefit to the consumer in terms of Rich Communication Services. RCS(Rich Communication Services) provides the feature of file transferring, language translation, voicemail, video calling, and instant messaging.
